EPA v. AMERICAN ULTRAVIOLET (NOW)

Case summary

Based on the information provided, and the compliance call on October 3, 2025, the MRS33-8 Mobile Room Sterilizers imported in the Shipment are determined to be instruments or contrivances intended for trapping, destroying, repelling, or mitigating any pest or any other form of plant or animal life, and thus, fall within the definition of devices under FIFRA section 2(h), 7 U.S.C. ? 136(h), and 40 C.F.R ? 152.500(a). Accordingly, they are subject to FIFRA regulation. These MRS33-8 Mobile Room Sterilizers are misbranded pursuant to FIFRA section 2(q)(1), 7 U.S.C. ? 136(q)(1) because the labeling fails to bear the establishment number of the establishment where they were produced. Accordingly, based on the information provided, importing the products in the shipment referenced above is a violation of FIFRA section 12(a)(1)(F), 7 U.S.C. ? 136j(a)(1)(F), as a distribution or sale of misbranded devices.
